Part kitten on its mother’s side, and ready to spring, this is arguably our most popular base. This 4-ply lush heavy DK base formerly known as Spectra DK has received enthusiastic praise and wide acclaim. To more accurately indicate the realities of its structure and spring, we renamed the base Mercury DK in 2022, as it has a structure and hand far more similar to its fingering-weight sibling Mercury than it has to any of the yarns of the Spectra line.
